as a followup to my earlier post, when i go to remove the older (and
native .deb-based) version of publican, i get:
$ sudo apt-get remove publican
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer
required:
libnumber-compare-perl libio-stringy-perl libconfig-simple-perl
libclone-perl
libsyntax-highlight-engine-kate-perl liblocale-maketext-gettext-perl
libclass-trigger-perl libfile-pushd-perl libfile-find-rule-perl
libdatetime-format-dateparse-perl libdatetime-timezone-perl
libfile-slurp-perl libmakefile-dom-perl libmakefile-parser-perl
libparams-util-perl libparams-validate-perl libimage-size-perl
libxml-treebuilder-perl libdatetime-perl liblocale-po-perl
libdatetime-locale-perl libtext-glob-perl libxml-libxslt-perl
libclass-data-inheritable-perl perlmagick libclass-singleton-perl
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
publican
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
After this operation, 4,231kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n
$
and that's why i'm nervous ... that many dependencies, and i don't
know how to verify that it'll install properly after being converted
from an rpm file. so i'm just looking for a multi-step recipe where i
can verify that each step works, and handles deps, and ... you get the
idea.
i have my two .deb files. now what?
